Weird... not sure what this would happen... I cannot replicate nor had I seen previous reports about this. 2.6.0 does not actually change any JS properties of the post box either, so this is rather strange.

Left-mouse down anywhere on the forum page will cause the "pointer hand" cursor to appear. This only happens when the forum is up. If I backup to my normal web site pages, this behavior does not occur. It is also impossible to view source the forum pages, but backing up to my normal web site will allow me to view source.

It's thie mouse down behaviour that is preventing the mouse from selecting any edit area. It seems the page is trapping the mouse down and not passing the event down to the control.

I've received several complaints about this behaviour from my users, so it must be oming from the forum pages instead of a local browser setting.
